Wine discount

[docjames]

Maybe AFF could consider negotiating with one (or more) of the proliferation of online wine merchants for an "AFF discount" (?10%) off the published price. Available to Gold/Platinum members perhaps??

They could 'sponsor' a "room" or thread as part of the "deal"??

Just thinking aloud......

Would have to be much better than a 10% discount. If you follow the various wine threads you'd know that people here often pay 80% less than RRP.

There are many larger organisations/clubs/websites that many here already use.

You can get 20-30% off just by shopping at DMs versus a local bottlo

Indeed, and for some of us we even get a discount on the discount price at DM's and others.

Wasn't there a dude on here some months back who claimed to an exporter of wine? Wasn't he going to put some kind od offer / package together?

I meant 10% off their "public offer" (which i agree can be up to 80% off).

I have negotiated such a discount here on the 2015 Riesling and the 2013 Cabernet. This discount has been discussed with Admin.

Simply use the code BUZZOFF during checkout.

Without doubt I could negotiate other discounts at other cellar doors but there is a fine line as to what is a commercial post hence it is not worth my time. After all, there is zero in it for me so it is not worth getting a warning or suspension from AFF.
